Return <B>magic</B> internal coordinates of the cursor (X11 pointer)
<HR>

<H3>Usage:</H3>

<H3>Summary:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      The <B>cursor</B> command returns the current position of the
      cursor (the X11 pointer, not the <B>magic</B> cursor box) in
      internal layout coordinates.
   </BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      <B>cursor</B> is implemented as a built-in window command in <B>magic</B>.
      In the Tcl version of magic, it returns a Tcl result (list of two
      elements, <B>x</B> and <B>y</B> coordinates). <P>

      Like all window commands, it reports relative to the existing window
      if only one window is present, or the active window if called with
      the "<TT>:</TT>" macro.  Otherwise, it must be called using the
      <I>tk_path_name</I> command to specify relative to which layout
      window the cursor coordinates will be given.
